Welcome to my blog!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I believe that everyone can have a beautiful home without spending a fortune! One of my favorite things to do is find creative ways to re-purpose things I already have on hand, or have picked up at yard sales and thrift stores. Join me as I share with you some of my favorite ideas for crafting and decorating, as well as travel adventures, and fun things that I pick up on my treasure hunts! Much of my work is influenced by my love all things French, nature, and of course shabby chic! I have gotten so many creative ideas from you very talented bloggers out there, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to you as well!

Spring Has Sprung!

I know many of you, myself included, are more than ready for spring to arrive!
So today I thought I'd share with you the gorgeous spring blooms at our local botanical gardens
As members, we were invited the other day to a pre show, and WOW, what a show it was!
 We are so fortunate to have the gardens nearby, and walk Katie their nearly every day on their many trails and scenic drives.
  I snapped alot of pictures, so I will let them do most of the talking:)
 The scents were amazing!
 The conservatory had tons of stunning amaryllis, more than I have ever seen before!

 Isn't this flower fairy, below, charming and sweet?
 So many colors, it was a feast for the eyes!

 Just look at these gorgeous orchids!  They all are on one plant!
 Daffodils are favorites of mine, so cheery, I think!

 Wish you could smell everything!

 Ok, this isn't a flower, but I had to share.  The huge kumquat tree in the tropical dome was loaded!  I was oh so tempted to stuff one in my mouth:)
 Kites hanging from the ceiling add a fun and festive touch!
 The amaryllis blossoms were huge, each bloom larger than my outstretched hand!
Thanks for joining me on my little tour today!
Here is wishing spring comes early for us all!
